Understanding that latest version of firefox will not longer support NAPI call and also need to verified the plugin.

At the moment, we are using http://mozilla.dorando.at/ plugin to disable all the keyboard-shortcuts keys which are not longer support in latest or coming Firefox in the future.

Is there anyway or solutions which we hope that Firefox could provide the features to turn it on/off or enable/disable ?

The reason being why we need the features is because we trace the keyboard-shortcuts key to support our application functions, for example F3 to submit the application form whereas the standard F3 is search function in firefox. The browser is just a browser any more, it serve more features and application or solutions...it can be standard for normal search engine, it can be as a tools to run as application or solutions. So, we hope it can be achieve in Firefox.

Thank you.

I asked a developer and he said you should use Webconverger: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/webconverger/

It's made for kiosks but it will work for you as well. You can use it to disable all shortcut keys by adding all the commands to the hidden UI page. I believe you can access the hidden UI page by visiting the about: page. See here for more info: https://webconverger.com/faq/#how-do-i-configure-webconverger
